Mardi Gras Treats


When I hear Mardi Gras I think King Cake - most people start thinking parades but my favorite thing about Mardi Gras is that sweet cinnamon, icing covered, baby hidden, bead covered bread. Until this year I was the only one in the house that liked King Cake, well I bought one this year {I haven't had the chance to make a homemade one} brought it home and the kids love it. There are plenty other treats you can make at Mardi Gras season if King Cake is not your pleasure or you may be hosting a party and you need a few desserts? Well here are a few that will go great for any party or just to make for a sweet treat for the family! Laissez les bons temps rouler!


Individual King Cakes :) You could even buy a small plastic baby to add in each or just add in the set you make. This is also from one of my favorite recipe blogs, Plain Chicken. Check out these Easy King Cake Knots. http://www.plainchicken.com/2011/03/easy-king-cake-knots.html

Another King Cake Favorite would these little King Cake Bars

Maybe you're looking for something a little simpler for the kids to make to celebrate Mardi Gras and especially
if you aren't attending any parade and here on the Gulf Coast. The kids are out of school for the Mardi Gras 
Holidays. These Mardi Gras Bites are perfect to keep them busy and a delicious snacks.
